Correct again, but I'll add that in addition to appointing senators, the governing party also appoints judges to the supreme court, and the bureaucracy including the CRTC and CBC. They run parliment, the courts and the media.

Does the governing party get to replace sitting Supreme Court judges, or only appoint new ones when vacancies occur?

If it's not the latter, I'm going to be appalled.
